I don't think people would disagree with that, Dillon Brooks fits the mold of Dennis Rodman, Bruce Bowen or Draymond Green. I hate all of them, but every dynasty has a top tier pest.
Şengün is the best player of that team. He will be a superstar one day. He has a potential for that. He is so underrated roght now but one day everyone is gonna talk about him.
@@Draregkoeliekalie yeah buddy you are right. How about being friends? I am a bit abone those days. We can talk about nba and support each other. I know it is a bit weird but sorry for that.
I feel the same about Detroit this year, coming from a Rockets fan. Bickerstaff is getting that young core into shape. And the vets like THJ, Harris, and Beasley are also a good influence on the young guys. Monty Williams set them back as well.
I’ve been saying for the last couple years the rockets were gonna be something special once our young players really started to grow! I saw the energy these guys brought, but a lot of people scoffed at me.
After a few years of watching the rockets rebuild, it feels so good to finally see it come together in this manner. Imagine this team keeps it's hustle and becomes even just average in their shot efficiency!
My boys are ready and sengun is the best center in the nba,we're seeing green grow and we are deep. 50+wins and nobody is gonna want to see us in the playoffs.
Amen, Jabbari, and Tari. Houston has three power forwards who can compensate for each other's flaws. Believe it or not, Landale is currently the backup center with the best stats in the NBA, effectively relieving Şengün while he regains his energy on the bench. A shooting guard who excels at shooting will relieve the pressure on Jalen to take three-pointers, allowing him to focus on what he does best.
@@uzaktaneyitim i agree. but like you said, Amen and Tari are hybrids that can get it done in that spot because of today's postionless basketball. Like the Celtics, Jason Tatum is really a SF, but they play him at pf too
Rockets have four players drafted in the top 4 picks in seven players drafted to the top 20, they have the talent they just need to learn how to play together. This is the way you win championships you can you build them in the draft, just like Golden State. #2 Jalen Green 2021 #3 Jabari Smith Jr 2022 #4 Amen Thompson 2023 #4 Reed Sheppard 2024 #16 Alperen Sengun 2021 #19 Tari Eason 2022 #20 Cam Whitmore 2023
This Rockets team is very tricky. You might be better than them is some offensive stats but create matchups problems against most of their opponents. Hey are too athletic, fast and young. Not all teams can match their intensity over the course of a full game. And there is the "Terror Twins" Tari Eason+Amen Thompson. On of them can give nightmares to every team, now image both together at the same time, that's automatic chaos. Why both will be in the discussion for 6MOTY and All Defensive Team. I expect the Rockets end the season in the 5-7 seed and making the playoffs.
The Rockets were already on the right track with their draft picks. Ime Udoka, only a year removed from leading the Celtics to the Finals, was just the guy to lead them in the right direction. I wasn't sure about signing VanVleet, Brooks, and Landale (especially for the amount of money they received, respectively) at first, but they've all been positives for them. All of their players have looked (Jalen Green to a lesser degree) good to great so far, and it's fun to see their progression.
I think one thing people dont talk enough, because people always look at his low efficiency, is how massively Jalen Green has improved at the defensive end. He is no longer a defensive liability IMO.
Houston Rockets' players play for each other. They back each other. They are TEAM. This team will produce more than one star player. But at the end of the day, whole team will be famous and legend.
This Rockets team had and has talent but they would be a 6 to 8 seed without Udoka and the staff. I am a Celtics fan and I saw how the team played when they all accepted his swarming defense. Yeah the Celtics won the title withouth him but he brought the dog defense philosophy to Houston and made them a team, not a circus like they were before he came in. I like them, they are a fun team to watch and their stars can only get better. Alperen Şengün is a special talent and if they add one more star to help Green who is still raw in many aspects, they could be a real force.
The Rockets are in a good place now but they fumbled a championship window with Harden bc of Daryl Morey's bad (in hindsight) moves as GM explanation below👇
The CP3, Westbrook and John Wall trades were all completely unnecessary. They wasted a ton value for a costar for Harden when they needed defense and floor spacers.
Robbed, not fumbled. There's a difference. Hey remember when warriors kept fouling Rockets to keep them from breaking another three point record. They even had Draymond Green commit flagrant foul on the Rockets. This was around 2013. Houston Rockets are the only team in history to lead the league in three attempts and made. While also winning the champ in the same season. No other team have done this even once. Rockets did it twice. 2018 was going to be only the third time in NBA history. "but but but they missed all those 3's in game 7". Cute, the "greatest of all time" warriors couldn't even win back to back at the time. Hey remember when spur fans claimed Bruce Bowen wasn't dirty. He injured other teams top stars multiple times doing this. Kinda ironic Zaza from the warriors used the Bruce Bowen move on Kawhi and injured him in 2017. Warriors resorted to doing the same in 2018 game 7. Some of those missed threes were straight up fouls. Keep in mind even with the difference in the roster and last resort Bruce Bowen moves. Warriors won by only 9 points. Sorry. Warriors are far from "the greatest of all time". With all due respect. Warriors have never won a champ without injuries to their opponents top two stars. This includes 2015, 2017, and 2018. Glass ankle curry couldn't even win FMVP until half the league was injured. Cute. Before KD warriors had no back to back and a 2016 choke job. When they called themselves the greatest. Ha. Guess they didn't believe in curry like they claimed. Kinda funny to see curry fans bash KD for his overrated ring. When curry shares the same overrated ring. They're trying to cut the finger to save the hand.
Amen Thompson is going to take over this team. 6"7 pg that gets to to the rim at will and rebounds steals and blocks like a maniac. Ppl dont realize how limitless he is and will be
Not unless they trade both Fred Vanvleet and Karen Green for a real franchise player.This team still doesn't have a true core, they don't know who should take the shot in the clutch moment, won't go far in playoff this way
Ime udoka is a good coach he transforms Celtic to a winning sides it is now from my personal view that Celtic win championship was what Ime did with team the current coach was working with him watch and see the transformation of Houston rocket then look back when he took over then compare too what’s is going on in rockets he deserves his flowers 🌺
Give Ime his due. It's his mindset that is rubbing off on these young cats. They are fresh out if college, so they're minds are still fresh, and they fell into the right situation with a young coach willing to teach them. All that trade talk, save that 💩. The Rockets are trending and growing in the right the direction without a big name, it would help but at this point they'd have to gut their team and chemistry and that's like starting from scratch. Htown is rolling....

Amen Is a point-foward he can play pg-sf. Tari Eason is a Sf-pf. Smith and Jeff green are the only true pfs
You're right. I was wrong. Then I think Jeff and Jabari together are not good enough to meet the ambitions of the Rockets. I wonder what you think.

It’s odd how people don’t know the 2018 rockets had a top defense
Their defense in the playoffs though was sub-par

yeah def some growing pains now, but each loss doesn't feel like a loss if we're actually learning from mistakes and getting better

Facts its impressive unselfish effort and about the team not individual play
With the bulls being questionable, the only team I can happily watch rn is the rockets.
Houston Rockets' players play for each other. They back each other. They are TEAM. This team will produce more than one star player. But at the end of the day, whole team will be famous and legend.
I didn’t remember us being that bad during the Silas era lol damn

Heh, system, dynasty warriors, i see what you did there.
THE ROCKETS NEEDS MATT RYAN
This team reminds me of the 'grit and grind' grizzlies.
For sure
Why is Dillon Brooks starting over Eason? Eason should be playing 35 minutes.
Harden back to playing like a 6th man
I mean, that's expected at this stage in his career
I’ll have to see it to believe it because Fred vanfleet ain’t on shit to me 😂
Would love to hear an update on your thoughts on Orlando
